Our Goals

Bachelor of Arts in Visual and Creative Arts: Art History

Learn to think and see differently.

Marian's art history program will prepare you for studying art history at the graduate level.

Why choose art history at Marian?

A foundation of studio art courses introduces you to the basic perceptual theories of art, handling of traditional media, and fundamental principles of design. This studio art foundation is combined with a full range of courses in art history covering the history of western art from its beginnings to the contemporary scene, all grounded in the social impact of the arts.

Internships are available in local museums for qualified students. You are also encouraged to participate in Marian University's study abroad program. Recent courses have highlighted the culture, history, art, and literature of Italy, Greece, France, Turkey, and Spain.
